“I would like to nominate my best friend, Jen Ashby, and her family for a mini session. They are beyond deserving of the opportunity to capture their beautiful, loving family in gorgeous photographs.
Bruce has been with the Delaware National Guard for 15 years, with Jen standing by his side for over 13 years. Throughout that time, they fell in love, got married, and had two beautiful children. While together, Bruce has been through 3 deployments, most recently returning home from Afghanistan in September of this year. When Bruce is home, he continues to serve our country by working as a police officer. We are all incredibly thankful for his service and courage while both overseas and home on our soil.
I have known Jen for nearly 10 years, and I am continually amazed by her strength and dedication to her husband and her family. While Bruce has been off serving for our country, Jen has remained a constant support system for him, as well as her children. She has raised 2 small children on her own while he was gone, while working full-time, and took all the highs and lows in stride with a smile on her face. She is truly one of the strongest people I know. Additionally, she is an FRG (Family Readiness Group) Executive Board member for Bruce’s unit and spent countless hours planning activities, preparing for celebrations, and creating informational newsletters.
I would love for the Ashby family to receive a mini session to celebrate their reunification after Bruce’s recent return from his deployment. Please vote for the Ashby’s!!!”
<3 Thank you to Bruce for his service and his family for their sacrifice <3
